“GrowSmarter: transforming cities for a smart, sustainable Europe” is a project that brings together cities and industry for demonstrating and integrating solutions aimed to reduce the environmental footprint related to urbanization. GrowSmarter demonstrates 12 smart city solutions in the fields of energy, infrastructure and transport, which shall serve as a valuable insight into what cities can do in practice to improve their energy efficiency and environmental protection results.

The project implementation looks like this: three Lighthouse cities (Stockholm, Cologne and Barcelona) will implement the 12 smart solutions, thereby showing how other cities can uptake them. Five follower Cities - Valetta, Suceava, Porto, Cork and Graz shall closely follow the implementation and replicate according to their local contexts.

The solutions are split equally into three domains: Low energy districts, Integrated infrastructures and Sustainable Urban Mobility. For each solution, several practical examples are given, together with accompanying context, detailed description, expected impact and the potential for replication.
